About 0.25 of an acre WAYWARDENS Waywardens is situated on the south east side of West Street set behind attractive green verges. The house, which was formerly a farmhouse, is Grade II Listed and is thought to date from the late eighteenth century. The property has been considerably remodelled at various times to suit changing tastes and is now principally Victorian in appearance. The property has an interesting history having been home over the centuries to tenants at the centre of village life including farmers, yeomen, carpenters and the village Waywarden who was responsible for surveying the local highway. The principal façade has a prominent canted bay window, attractive sash windows, two gabled dormer windows beneath Cotswold stone and welsh slate roofs. There is a date stone situated in the dining room marked 1768. The property retains the usual period features including Cotswold flagstone floors, exposed stopped chamfered ceiling timbers, mullion windows and exposed floorboards. Internally the property provides an excellent arrangement of rooms over three floors including a welcoming entrance hall providing access to a magnificent kitchen/breakfast room which is open to the family room forming the heart of the house. The kitchen is fitted with a range of handmade and hand painted wall and floor cabinets, with black granite work surfaces, Butler sink and handmade tile splashbacks. There is a black enamelled Everhot stove for cooking. The kitchen/breakfast room has a full height ceiling with exposed roof truss timbers. A glazed link connects the kitchen/breakfast room to the family room creating an interesting combination of traditional and contemporary. Beyond the kitchen/breakfast room is the utility and cloakroom with door to garden and turned staircase to a useful galleried study. The sitting room has an impressive fireplace.
